Councilor Duggan asked the known condition of the area that will be taken over.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek stated that Waters Drive is included in the City’s 2022 street
reconstruction project. He stated that the City completed soil boring and the design work for the project
and provided details on the project. He noted that the road meets the City standards and that the City
requested that MnDOT provide financial reimbursement to bring the roadway up to standards. He
explained that the reimbursement is based on the estimate completed by the City’s consultant. He noted
that the City would have moved forward with the project, regardless of whether funds were contributed
from MnDOT.
Councilor Duggan asked if there is information from the businesses on whether they have input. Director
Ruzek stated that the assessments were relatively low because of the density of office buildings in the
area.
Councilor Duggan asked who would be responsible for the crossover of Highway 55 and Waters Drive.
Director Ruzek replied that MnDOT is currently in the process of improving Highway 55 which does
include the crossover and that staff does attend the weekly meetings held by MnDOT.

new bases constructed for the bottom. He stated that they began an inspection program the previous
summer to identify needed replacements and that there are many more this year that are in need of
replacement because of the age of the poles. He stated that the City will attempt to get as much life as it
can out of the poles and provided additional details on the maintenance and installation costs.
Councilor Paper asked if public works is involved in the install and dismantle of the poles or whether an
outside contractor would handle those duties. Director Ruzek replied that in an effort to save money, the
City has worked out an arrangement where one or two public works staff members will work with the
electrician.

Community Development Director Tim Benetti stated that the preliminary plat for the layout was
approved by the Council at its last meeting. He recognized that there were concerns about the flag
appearance of the lot but explained that this is not considered a flag lot because there is the required
frontage on both Wagon Wheel and Rogers Avenue.
Councilor Duggan asked if this would be required to meet the landscaping requirements of the natural
resources plan. Director Benetti replied that it could but was unsure the natural resources plan has been
fully resolved.
Councilor Mazzitello commented that it would depend on when the building permit comes in and whether
the plan and Code have been adopted by that time.
Councilor Paper moved to approve RESOLUTION 2022-39 APPROVING FINAL PLAT FOR LILLIE’S

PUBLIC HEARING
No items scheduled.
NEW AND UNFINISHED BUSINESS
A)NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN
Natural Resources Coordinator Krista Spreiter explained that the Council was being asked to hear a
presentation of the Natural Resources Management Plan (NRMP) update and accept the final draft of the
plan as provided by Resource Environmental Solutions (RES).
Doug Mensing, RES, provided background information on the NRMP and the goals in the Comprehensive
Plan that related to natural resources. He reviewed the draft plan including the vision, Phase 1
accomplishments, Phase 2 accomplishments, community outreach, the natural resources and volunteer
program, and review of City ordinances. A map was displayed identifying the natural areas land cover,
noting that the vast majority of the city is not natural. He reviewed a map identifying natural areas
ecological quality. He stated that a tree canopy analysis was completed which helps identify opportunities
for restoration projects. He explained how the heat island hot spots can be used. He identified potential
partnerships the City could look for to implement the plan and make the system more cohesive throughout
the city. He highlighted that natural parks, noting that those provide the greatest opportunities for
restoration and natural area projects. He reviewed a cost estimate to manage the City’s natural areas, the
priority projects that were identified, and the five-year phased implementation plan.
Mayor Levine thanked Mr. Mensing for the presentation and the steering committee for their work.
Councilor Miller referenced the funding for the projects and asked if those numbers were based on
contracting out the work or using in-house staff. Mr. Mensing stated that the estimates are based on the
use of contractors, as that is the most conservative estimate. He recognized that using volunteers and
partnerships can lower those costs.
Councilor Miller asked how often a municipality should update this plan. Mr. Mensing replied that
communities tend to think out about ten years but looking out further than five years tends to be hazier.
He stated that if the plan is revisited every five years, it would be much less work as the majority of the
plan would not change.
Councilor Paper commented that this plan is excellent for the City and noted that it is already starting to
pay for itself. He believed this was a great accomplishment for the long-term benefit of the community.
He referenced the tree canopy inventory and asked for clarification.
Mr. Mensing replied that it was an inventory of public and private land, using high resolution imagery.
He confirmed that some of the technology they used was newer and would not have been available years
ago.
Councilor Paper asked why the Norway Maple is considered invasive. Mr. Mensing replied that the tree
is not native and can spread, crowding out other species.
Page 4
Councilor Duggan asked how much experience RES has had in putting this type of plan to work for a
community. Mr. Mensing replied that RES has different business lines that handle different tasks. He
stated that there is a contracting group that works in the field implementing these types of plans.
Councilor Duggan asked for clarification on the word forbs. Mr. Mensing replied that is basically a
wildflower.
Councilor Duggan commended RES, noting that this is some of the best reporting he has seen and did not
see a reason this could not be adopted and implemented. He commented that the biggest challenge will
be following through to maintain the work that is done.
Councilor Mazzitello complimented Mr. Mensing for the immense amount of work that went into
developing the plan. He stated that he does not feel he has thoroughly reviewed the plan in totality and
asked the action before the Council tonight.
Coordinator Spreiter stated that the Council is being asked to accept the draft plan, noting that additional
comments can still be provided.
City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson confirmed that staff is asking the Council to accept the draft and that
additional comments can still be made before the final plan is adopted at a later date.
Councilor Mazzitello commented that he would prefer to go through the document in a work session with
staff and Mr. Mensing before adopting the final plan. If that could be done, he could support the approval.
Mayor Levine referenced the ordinances that are in the second half of the report, which are drafts. She
wanted to be clear that adopting this plan would not mean adoption of those ordinances.
Coordinator Spreiter replied that the ordinances were examples and tools for decision makers to use in
developing an ordinance that would work for this city.
Mayor Levine believed that acceptance of the plan would also not adopt the five-year plan, noting that
would come at a later time in the budget discussions.
Mayor Levine asked how the Natural Resources Commission would inform this work.
Coordinator Spreiter stated that the new Commission has reviewed the plan. This would work as a guiding
document for the group when making recommendations to the Council.
Councilor Mazzitello asked if the Commission has made any comments that would potentially be
incorporated. Coordinator Spreiter commented that the Commission has not provided any comments but
recognized that one member of the Commission was a part of the steering committee.
Councilor Duggan stated that the two largest physical areas in the city are in the plan but are not subject
to the plan because they are controlled by other entities. He asked if there has been any communication
with the Dodge Nature Center or Fort Snelling.
Coordinator Spreiter replied that Fort Snelling has its own jurisdiction and noted that the City has
partnered with the nature center in the past and would continue to do so.
Page 5
Mayor Levine commented that those properties are not within the jurisdiction of the City, but they are
also well managed areas.
Councilor Duggan suggested that staff reach out to those entities to advise them of the plan and welcome
communication and partnership opportunities. He referenced the exemptions listed and stated that he
would be interested in what properties would be adjacent thereto.
Mayor Levine commented that the Council is being tasked with accepting the draft and it appears there
would be an opportunity to meet in a work session to discuss the finer points before final adoption.
Councilor Duggan believed that members of the Council should meet with staff individually to share their
questions and concerns to receive guidance before that work session.
Coordinator Spreiter stated that the language was just suggestive for potential ordinance changes. She
provided an example of a property adjacent thereto.
Councilor Duggan referenced the tree replacement requirements and suggested that the information be
provided to all the nurseries that are used by developers to ensure those nurseries are aware of these
concerns and preferences. He noted that could make things easier as a form of education. He referenced
the term City Forester and asked if that would be Natural Resources Coordinator Krista Spreiter.
Coordinator Spreiter confirmed that would be true for this instance.
Councilor Duggan provided grammatical suggestions. Coordinator Spreiter noted that these ordinance
examples within the plan are all suggestions and would be reviewed and potentially changed before being
considered for adoption.
Councilor Duggan moved to accept THE FINAL DRAFT OF THE UPDATED NATURAL
RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN.
Councilor Paper seconded the motion.
Further discussion: Councilor Mazzitello asked if the motion maker and seconder would accept the
suggestion to amend the motion to include a work session with staff to further review the plan.
Councilors Duggan and Paper accepted that suggestion.
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0
B)RESOLUTION 2022-40 APPROVE PLANS AND AUTHORIZE AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR
BIDS FOR THE WENTWORTH PARK PAVING IMPROVEMENTS
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek stated the Council was being asked to approve Resolution 2022-40
approving plans and authorizing an advertisement for bids for repaving of the parking lot, trails, and
hockey rink at Wentworth Park.
Page 6
Councilor Miller commented that with this project, the trail from Wentworth past the tennis courts would
also be fixed. Director Ruzek confirmed that the highlighted trails would be replaced and/or improved as
part of this project. He provided additional details on the trail projects and hockey rink paving.
Councilor Paper asked if there would be a pipe under the raised trail to drain the water. Director Ruzek
explained that the proposal would include excavation of a swale on the north side of the trail.
Councilor Paper asked how the rink would be paved. Director Ruzek replied that the boards and posts
would be removed on one side to allow the contractor to get their equipment in. The boards would be at
the edge of the paving. He explained that the posts supporting the boards would be in soil and therefore
could be pulled and replaced without impact.
Councilor Paper referenced the trail by the ballfield noting that there are some large bumps and asked if
that is caused by tree roots. Director Ruzek replied that the pavement will be removed. He noted that
there are some meanders in the trail that may be straightened up.
Councilor Paper asked if anything could be done to address the drainage from the ballfield while
completing this project. Director Ruzek stated that he is not sure that could be corrected with this project.
Councilor Paper asked and received confirmation that this would be a new trail.
Councilor Mazzitello referenced a very flat area that does not drain well and asked if there is opportunity
to move that water. Director Ruzek stated there is a swale that does stay wet and therefore mowed turf
grass would not be the proper vegetation for that area.
Councilor Duggan commented that he did watch a previous meeting where bids were rejected for the
Wentworth warming house. Director Ruzek noted that there will still need to be a decision on what to do
with the warming house, whether the project is scaled down, whether the City were to rent a trailer
seasonally, etc.
Councilor Duggan referenced the draft resolution and specific language within the Whereas statement.
Director Ruzek replied that this would only apply to the paving project as noted.
Councilor Duggan commented that it nice to see something good being completed at Wentworth.
Councilor Paper commented that this is a great pivot by staff in order to utilize the grant funds.
Mayor Levine agreed, acknowledging that she also thought the grant funds would need to be returned and
instead the funds can be used to complete other overdue improvements in the park.
Councilor Duggan moved to adopt RESOLUTION 2022-40 APPROVING FINAL PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS, AND AUTHORIZING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR THE WENTWORTH
PARK PAVING IMPROVEMENTS.
Councilor Miller seconded the motion.
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0

C)AWARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICE CONTRACT FOR DODD ROAD
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek stated the Council is asked to authorize a professional services contract
to TKDA for development of layout options on Dodd Road between Decorah Lane/Wagon Wheel Trail
and Keokuk Lane. The layout options generated could be used for public engagement and potential
submittal of a Local Partnership Program (LPP) grant from the Minnesota Department of Transportation.
Councilor Mazzitello asked and received confirmation that the deliverable from the consultant would be
layout alternatives. He asked if the diagram in the packet could be one of those options. Director Ruzek
noted that there would be many alternatives for one of the intersections.
Councilor Duggan referenced a mention that one intersection could be closed. Director Ruzek replied that
the intersection is unsafe and should essentially be closed. He described some of the improvements that
would be made in another intersection to provide safety for that area.
Councilor Mazzitello moved to authorizing PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT WITH TKDA
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LAYOUT OPTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENTS TO DODD ROAD IN
AN NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT OF $5,500.
Councilor Duggan seconded the motion.
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0
COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS
City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson announced upcoming events.
COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilor Duggan commented that it is good to be back.
Councilor Paper welcomed Councilor Duggan back. He commented that the Mayor provided a great State
of the City address today and recommended that residents watch it online as it is quite a recap of the last
year in review. He wished the City Clerk Lorri Smith a great retirement.
Councilor Miller a happy Syttende Mai to all the Norwegians in the community.
Mayor Levine thanked the steering committee members once again for the hard work on the Natural
Resources Management Plan. She recognized that May 15th is National Peace Officers Memorial Day
and recognized Officer Scott Patrick.
Councilor Mazzitello commented that he was able to attend an American Public Works Association
conference the previous week, noting that Minnesota received an overall grade of C. He noted that each
category had its own grade and the highest grade received was for aviation for MSP. He noted that
Minnesota also ranks high for drinking water and commended Saint Paul Regional Water Service for
supplying excellent water to the community. He welcomed back Councilor Duggan and wished City
Clerk Lorri Smith a happy retirement.

ZONING CODE REVIEW DISCUSSION
Ma yor Levin e opened the meeting with those in attendance introducing themselves.
Consultant Jennifer Haskamp provided an introductory summary of the city’s zoning code update
purpose and questionnaire responses for the project. She explained that the city’s official land use
controls are required to be consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and the powers to zone and
subdivide are granted by the State.
Ms. Haskamp stated that the questionnaire respondents defined success for the project to include a
revised code that is easier to use, consistent and concise. She noted that the respondents also wanted to
remove repetition and ambiguity, clarify roles of staff, commissioners and council members and make
decision making clear along with generally updating the code to reflect policy directives and the
modern environment.
Ms. Haskamp provided an overview of Minnesota Statutes 462.357 relating to Authority for Zoning
and 462.358 relating to Subdivision Regulation.
Ms. Haskamp provided an assessment of the city’s code observing that the code was hard to follow and
maybe trying to do much, that information is muddled and conflicting and that previous updates were
not completed uniformly. She noted that updates in the past did not appear to take into account the
impact on non-conforming uses and/or lots.
Item 5b
Page 11
Ms. Haskamp closed the meeting by explaining the next steps of the process including the

Page 13
6. Unfinished and New Business
a.Review of Chair Norling’s meeting with the Eagan ARC chair
Chair Norling noted that the Eagan ARC has a newly elected chair, Bill Raker. They met
in February to discuss joint meeting goals and he shared a copy of the Eagan ARC work
plan. Chair Norling suggested taking a tour of the MSP Air Traffic Control Tower as a
combined field trip with Eagan, planned for June 14. She also suggested attending a
joint meeting at Eagan on July 12 for a presentation by Brian Ryks about the MSP ARC
“State of the Union”.
Commissioner Neuharth noted he’d be absent during those events.
Commissioner Dunn commented that Brian Ryks did a great presentation recently, and
the last tower tour was perhaps in 2015 or 2016.
City Administrator Jacobson added that these would be considered special meetings in
addition to regularly scheduled ARC meetings.
b.Heights Highlights Article Review & Building Permit Message
Chair Norling noted that an ARC article will be included in the upcoming May/June
edition of the Heights Highlights. Communications Coordinator Sharon Deziel and
Commissioner Neuharth are drafting an article with at March 25 deadline. The most
recent edition of the Heights Highlights included a brief introductory paragraph about
the ARC. Commissioner Neuharth will draft an article and send to the other
commissioners for approval prior to March 25. The article will focus on ARC’s
participation with the NOC and MAC, as well as a data monitoring chart illustrating noise
control reports and public access to report noise events.
Included in the packet was a draft of an informational handout regarding “remodeling or
building”, written by Commissioner Byrnes. Chair Norling noted the purpose of the
article is to provide builders, residents, and homeowners some general “for-your-
information” tips.
Commissioner Hamiel commented the article is very great and readable, and asked how
it will be distributed and when.
Commissioner Dunn added that the homeowner needs to have a good way to find this
handout that might not necessarily be through their contractor.
Commissioner Sharma noted one grammatical error at the end of the first paragraph;
needing to add the word “not”.
Page 14
Commissioner Hamiel added he’s sensitive to this issue and wonders how we can get
this to people moving into the city or those doing new building. He asks how they get
this before they reach the permitting process.
Chair Norling suggested we add the article to an edition of the Heights Highlights
publication.
Commissioner Hamiel asked if there were certain contractors in the community that
build most of the Mendota Heights homes. If so, could we provide this to those who
work in the community. He feels it’s our responsibility to let the community know and
be proactive on this matter.
Commissioner Sloan suggested getting the article to the Planning Commission.
Commissioner Neuharth clarified that the original intent was to notify people in the
affected zone, which would limit the amount of distribution needed. He suggested
developing the areas of focus first, and then expand to more residents afterwards.
Commissioner Dunn noted that the last mitigation was in the 1990s so some current
homes will need new windows, roofs, etc.
Commissioner Sharma suggested offering the article as a general handout as well as
putting it on the City website.
Commissioner Hamiel offered to think about what options might be available and will
come to the next meeting with more information and ideas.
c.Review 2022 action items and meeting planning
Chair Norling laid out the upcoming meeting plans and agenda items that would relate
to the ARC’s priorities and action items. She noted the ongoing action items and the
strategies that will be covered when they coordinate with the Eagan MAC.
Commissioner Sharma suggested they “park” the Bourne Lane property strategy and the
2040 Comprehensive Plan strategy.
Chair Norling decided for the May meeting the ARC will review the building/noise
mitigation article and Commissioner Neuharth’s data and metrics recommendations
with COVID-19 considerations. In July they will meet with the Eagan ARC.
7.Acknowledge Receipt of Reports and Correspondence
a.2021 Noise Contour Report
Chair Norling suggested they defer due to the length of the report.
Page 15
City Administrator Jacobson offered an overview: There was a NOC update and the
actual contour didn’t qualify any additional homes for the noise mitigation program.
Commissioner Dunn will look at the included maps for more data and follow up soon.
Commissioner Neuharth noted that was good news that the contour area shrank.
a.Review of Airport Operational Statistics
i.Complaint Information
Commissioner Sloan noted there were low complaints at this time.
ii.Runway Use Information
Commissioner Neuharth wondered if because of a decrease in flights, is there data that
needs to be moved over COVID dates, 2020-2021, and then recalculated. He noted the
current data is looking normal.
Commissioner Sharma noted the 24 month trailing period and will have more info at the
May meeting.
iii.Turboprop Information
Commissioner Neuharth noted the turbo trend was down and asked if we need to
follow this data any further.
Commissioner Sloan suggested they set up meetings with AirFree companies to gain
rapport and learn of their future plans.
Commissioner Sharma added that the reason they sent so many more flights north of
the corridor was because there were jets behind them.
Commissioner Dunn thinks we’re the only group monitoring this data still.
Commissioner Neuharth added that Brad Ryks was interested in speaking to the group
again about this in the future.
iv.Noise Monitor Information
No comments.
b.News Articles
Three articles included the topics of; Duluth Airport, Denver, and Minnesota Birds.

Community Development Director Tim Benetti explained that the applicant is seeking approval of
a new subdivision of the property located at 945 Wagon Wheel Trail. The proposed plat is intended
to create two new lots for single-family residential development. The property is currently owned
by Helyne Pince, and SD Companies has the subject property under contract to purchase, subject
to acceptance of the entitlement application.
Hearing notices were published and mailed to all properties within 350-ft. of the site; no comments
or objections to this request were received.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti provided a planning staff report and a presentation
on this planning item to the Commission (which is available for viewing through the City’s
Item 5d
Page 19
website). He provided additional details on Option B submitted by the applicant. Staff
recommended approval of this application based on the findings and with conditions.
Chair Field read a letter submitted by the applicant explaining his absence at the meeting and
asking the Commission to consider Option B.
Commissioner Johnson referenced the platting procedures within City Code which requires a soil
and erosion control plan as well as landscaping plan for sediment control. She asked if those
documents have been provided.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that the soils map/report was included in
the packet. He stated that each lot will have its own separate wetland permit in the future and
therefore those documents would come at that time as no work will be done other than the lot split
and removal of the existing home.
Commissioner Johnson stated that she was appreciative of the detailed listing of the trees and asked
if that has been marked to delineated removals.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that would occur when the homes are
platted, and tree removal is known.
Commissioner Johnson asked for details on drainage and flood control.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that would also be addressed under the
wetland permits.
Commissioner Lorberbaum asked and received clarification on elements within Option B. She
asked if there would be a road where the current shared driveway is located.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that it would not be a paved or developed
curb and gutter road but will be a platted roadway of 60 feet wide. He stated that in the future if
it is decided to punch a road into Mendakota Country Club, the City would have that right.
Commissioner Lorberbaum asked how the fire department would access the second lot and
whether they could turn around.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that he has not checked with the fire
department.
Commissioner Lorberbaum commented that she has concern with that. She commented that the
City will not be maintaining or plowing the access to the second lot, if it is not designated as a city
road.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that there would be a shared driveway
agreement and therefore it is similar to a driveway in that the homeowners would maintain it.
Page 20
Chair Field stated that under the proposed arrangement would a different unrelated resident be able
to park their vehicle on that shared driveway and walk over to the lake.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that as a public right-of-way he would
believe that could be done.
Chair Field noted that it is a public easement and therefore could qualify as a road.
Commissioner Lorberbaum stated that this is a preliminary plat approval and not a final plat
request. She asked for more information on the process.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that the Planning Commission
recommends the preliminary plat which then goes to the City Council. He stated that the final plat
goes to the City Council as long as it is consistent with the preliminary plat. He stated that
sometimes both the preliminary and final are presented to the Commission as the developer has
submitted them together, otherwise the Commission does not review a final plat.
Commissioner Petschel asked if the northern lot would be on Rogers Avenue, or whether this
would not become Rogers Avenue unless the City decided to extend and connect.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that he does not believe that Rogers
Avenue has been officially included on mapping even though part of the road was dedicated under
a previous plat. He stated that the half section of road right-of-way is public at 30 feet. He stated
that once the other 30 feet is dedicated, it would become a full road right-of-way of 60 feet.
Commissioner Petschel commented that until the City exercises the right, the road would not be
official and would not have width or facilities to accommodate parking. He stated that the road
would not exist because the City has not chosen to put it in.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that the City chose to keep the right-of-
way section and request the remainder be dedicated and provide access through license agreement
at this time.
Chair Field stated that if the applicant decides to only have one home on the property at the
northern lot line, it would have access to a driveway of the same length proposed.
Commissioner Lorberbaum commented that the proposed length would be 556, therefore if this
were made a road it would exceed the maximum length for a cul-de-sac of 500 feet.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek explained that calculation would only apply if the cul-de-sac
were put at the very end, which is not typically where the cul-de-sac is placed. He stated that the
cul-de-sac only needs to go to where driveways exist, therefore it would be lesser than 500 feet.
Chair Field opened the public hearing.
Page 21
Greg Quehl, 963 Wagon Wheel, commented that if the fire engine could not reach this proposed
length, he would ask what would happen if there were a fire at his home. He stated that he has a
road that provides access for a fire truck, but they would not have room to turn around, they would
simply backup. He stated that a fire truck can access the homes that already exist and therefore
wondered what the issue would be with a third or fourth home.
Commissioner Lorberbaum commented that staff can gain an opinion from the fire department
before this moves forward to the City Council.
Mr. Quehl stated that he and the Jacobs put together a question-and-answer type thing as to what
would be asked of the proposal. He noted that many are public works or utility related. He stated
that they did not have an objection to the proposal and asked the difference between options A and
B.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti identified the difference between options A and B
in terms of the proposed lot lines.
Mr. Quehl asked if ownership of the right-of-way would be addressed.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti provided clarification on current property
ownership and what is being asked by the City in terms of right-of-way dedication.
Mr. Quehl noted a utility easement owned by Xcel and asked if that has been addressed. It was
confirmed that there would be no changes to that easement. He asked if the lots could be setback
further from the roadway and spaced further apart.
Chair Field commented that those home sites are just shown in example. He noted that the
applicant would return in the future with home proposals and the action before the Commission
tonight is only related to the lot split.
Mr. Quehl asked for details on the sewer connections.
Chair Field stated that the applicant has represented that there would be separate sewer service for
each lot but was unsure where those would be placed.
Mr. Quehl commented on the apron at Rogers Avenue and Wagon Wheel and the difficulty on
turning right out when leaving Rogers Avenue. He asked if that apron could be extended. He
asked when the determination would be made as to whether Rogers would be public or private.
Chair Field believed it would become public upon approval of the plat.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek replied that he would view that as a shared driveway and
therefore there would be regulations against public parking. He stated that the City has and would
continue to issue a license to the homeowners to have a private driveway on a public
easement/right-of-way. He commented that a random person would not have the right to park on
this shared driveway.
Page 22
Larry Jacobs, 953 Wagon Wheel Trail, reinforced the comments of the previous speaker. He stated
that the greatest concern they would have is related to turning the private drive into public access.
He stated that if there is increased public traffic on the private drive there would be safety concerns
because of the difficulty getting onto Wagon Wheel. He stated that he would not want to encourage
public parking on the private driveway. He stated that he would also have concerns when the
development of the homes comes forward, such as whether the private driveway would be widened
and whether the mail would be relocated.
Jane Haws, 940 Wagon Wheel, expressed concerns with allowing public parking. She commented
that people park on her driveway to access fishing in the area the City does not want fishing. She
stated that if parking were allowed on Rogers that would increase issues with safety and traffic.
Chair Field stated that he apologizes for asking that question about parking and noted that has been
clarified by Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek that parking would not be allowed.
Commissioner Katz suggested that the resident place private driveway signs to prevent public
parking.
Seeing no one else coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close the
public hearing.
COMMISSIONER KATZ MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER JOHNSON, TO
CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
AYES: 5
NAYS: 0
Commissioner Johnson referenced the staff recommendation and condition one which mentions
the wetlands permits. She noted that there has been clearing activity in the past prior to a wetland
permit being requested and therefore asked if additional language should be added prohibiting
clearing prior to obtaining the permit. She asked if the applicant is aware of the prohibition of
heavy clearing within the shore impact zone.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti confirmed that language could be added.
Commissioner Katz understood the recommendation of the City Attorney relating to the lots
meeting the requirements. He stated that it was his understanding as a member of the Commission
that the City was not allowing flag lots.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti stated that the definition of a flag lot is frontage
of less than 100 feet and advised that these lots would each have the necessary frontage. He stated
that the City Attorney has stated that Option A could have also been approved because the frontage
would have been provided along the right-of-way, whether the road were developed or not. He
stated that in order to avoid any conflicts, the developer chose Option B.
Page 23
Commissioner Johnson stated that while the lot would be odd shaped, access would not be gained
through the pole part therefore it would not be classified as a flag lot.
Chair Field noted that the access is off platted right-of-way and therefore eliminates the
consideration of a flag lot. He noted that if the intent of the City is to be spacious and gracious,
this would seem to be a good fit for development.
Commissioner Lorberbaum asked for clarification on whether this would be considered a private
drive rather than a minor street.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek replied that this is a private driveway per the license
agreement. He stated that the license also defines the rights of the City should it desire to construct
a roadway.

B)PLANNING CASE 2022-08
LDK BUILDERS, 791 WENTWORTH AVENUE – WETLANDS PERMIT
Community Development Director Tim Benetti explained that the applicants are seeking a
Wetlands Permit to allow the construction of a new single-family dwelling, along with a new
retaining wall structure located next to a small creek channel.
Hearing notices were published and mailed to all properties within 350-ft. of the site; the City
received one letter of objection from a neighboring property owner, no other comments or
objections to this request were received.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti provided a planning staff report and a presentation
on this planning item to the Commission (which is available for viewing through the City’s
website).
Staff recommended approval of this application based on the findings and with conditions.
Greg Kuperus, LDK Builders, commented that he is present to answer any questions.
Commissioner Johnson referenced the grading and drainage statement which states that it is
anticipated that all trees will be removed within the grading limits indicated. She asked where
those limits would be and where the sod would end in relation to the trail.
Mr. Kuperus replied that the sod would be complete to the trail and beyond. He stated that the
backyard would be sodded halfway to the filtration basin and the remainder would be seeded.
Commissioner Johnson referenced the berm with trees and asked if that would be removed.
Mr. Kuperus replied that they do not intend to remove the berm or those trees.
Commissioner Johnson asked if the plan is to sod up to the trail, what is being placed on the
opposite side of the trail – and is this land (on the other side of the trail) County property.
Mr. Kuperus stated that they will sod to provide the front yard appearance and to make it mowable.
Commissioner Johnson asked about a culvert near the corner, and front yard drainage towards the
roadway, what would slow down the water that is draining from the front yard.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek stated that as part of the overall development of the four lots,
the City reviewed the overall grading plan and storm water management plan. He stated that the
overall development and this lot meets the drainage requirements of the City. He commented that
the front yard of this lot does not go into a treatment basin but would provide a reduction from the
existing conditions. He stated that the culvert was installed by a previous landowner and therefore
is not a County or City facility.
Page 26
Commissioner Johnson commented that the City is working towards development and
implementation to increase the tree canopy and asking developers to retain mature trees and install
quality trees in replacement. She stated that there are two autumn blaze maples and liked the use
of the seed mix. She asked if the applicant would be willing to work with staff to increase the
number of trees and high value ecosystem communities as nothing of that nature is shown on the
plans.
Mr. Kuperus replied that the landscaping plan is proposed and noted that there would be additional
plantings around the house as this will be a high value home. He stated that he would want to
know what would be required before he would agree.
Commissioner Johnson asked if the applicant would be willing to work with City staff to add more
trees and high value ecosystem trees and shrubs.
Mr. Kuperus replied that he would work with City staff to ensure City requirements are met.
Commissioner Lorberbaum asked for more information on fill that has been taken from or brought
to the site.
Mr. Kuperus stated that overall grading was already completed, and that dirt was moved through
a separate grading permit. He stated that there would be excavation for the basement.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti replied that the permit would approve the full build
out of the lot for a single-family home.
Chair Field opened the public hearing.
Jim Carlson, property owner across the creek, asked for clarification on the lot layout as to
Wachtler.
Community Development Director Tim Benetti provided clarification on the orientation of the
plans.
Randy Pentel 815 Deer Trail Court, stated that he had questions related to drainage which appear
to have already been addressed by staff. He stated that if the builder has excess dirt from the
basement excavation, he could use that.
Seeing no one else coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close the
public hearing.

FURTHER DISCUSSION: COMMISSIONER JOHNSON REQUESTED TO AMEND THE
MOTION TO INCLUDE ANOTHER CONDITION STATING THAT THE APPLICANT WITH
WORK WITH THE NATURAL RESOURCES COORDINATOR TO INCREASE TREE
CANOPY AND INSTALL HIGH ECOSYSTEM COMMUNITIES ON THE LOT.
COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL STATED THAT HE WOULD NOT SUPPORT THAT. HE
STATED THAT COULD BE RECOMMENDED BUT COULD NOT BE FORCED.
CHAIR FIELD AGREED THAT SHOULD NOT BE INCLUDED ON THE RECORD AND
SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE A RECOMMENDATION.
COMMISSIONER LORBERBAUM STATED THAT THE APPLICANT HAS STATED THAT
THEY WOULD BE OPEN TO WORKING WITH STAFF TO FIND OUT MORE
INFORMATION BUT WOULD NOT AGREE TO DOING SOMETHING WITHOUT
KNOWING WHAT THAT MAY BE.
MR. KUPERUS COMMENTED THAT HE WOULD BE PLEASED TO WORK WITH STAFF
TO ENSURE THE REQUIREMENTS ARE MET BUT WOULD NOT AGREE TO THINGS
ABOVE AND BEYOND.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR TIM BENETTI STATED THAT WHEN
SWEENY ADDITION PLAT 2ND WAS FILED THERE WAS A CONDITION FOR A
DETAILED LANDSCAPING PLAN TO BE SUBMITTED WITH THE BUILDING PERMIT.
HE STATED THAT ADDITIONAL DETAILS ARE PROVIDED AT THAT STAGE, BUT AT
THIS STAGE IT IS ONLY REQUIRED THAT THE MINIMAL REQUIREMENTS BE MET.
HE COMMENTED THAT HE IS CONFIDENT THAT LDK WILL BE PROVIDING

COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL ASKED THE ORDINANCE THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE
APPLICANT TO DO SO.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR TIM BENETTI REPLIED THAT IS NOT
REQUIRED UNDER ORDINANCE.
COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL NOTED THAT IS WHERE HIS CONCERN WOULD BE,
THAT THE GROUP WOULD BE INVENTING REQUIREMENTS. HE STATED THAT THIS
IS A RECORD THAT IS POTENTIALLY SOMETHING THAT COULD BE FOUGHT IN
COURT, IF APPROVED BY THE COUNCIL, AND THINGS CANNOT BE PUT IN BECAUSE
THAT IS HOW SOMEONE WOULD WANT IT TO BE.
Page 29
COMMISSIONER JOHNSON NOTED A DETAILED LANDSCAPING PLAN IS REQUIRED.
COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL COMMENTED THAT WAS PROVIDED.
COMMISSIONER JOHNSON REFERENCED THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL NOTED THAT IS NOT CODE.
COMMISSIONER JOHNSON STATED HER AMENDMENT WAS FOR THE APPLICANT
TO WORK WITH THE NATURAL RESOURCES COORDINATOR, NOT TO REQUIRE
ANYTHING SPECIFIC BUT SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE AMENABLE TO BOTH
PARTIES.
CHAIR FIELD STATED THAT HE AGREES WITH COMMISSIONER PETSCHEL AND NOT
COMMISSIONER JOHNSON. HE STATED THAT PUTTING A WILL OR SHALL WOULD
EXCEED THE AUTHORITY OF THE CITY. IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT RECOMMEND

Request for City Council Action
DATE: June 7, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Cheryl Jacobson, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement with the Dakota
Communications Center (DCC)
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is asked to consider adopting Resolution 2022-43, approving an Amended and
Restated Joint Powers Agreement with the Dakota Communications Center (Dakota 911).
BACKGROUND
Since May 2005 (Res. 2005-64), the City of Mendota Heights has been part of Joint Powers
Agreement governing the operations of the Dakota Communications Center (DCC), the public
safety answering point and communications center for law enforcement, fire, emergency medical
services and other public safety services throughout Dakota County.
Operational since 2007, the DCC has provided high quality public safety dispatch services to the
community. The DCC is governed by a board of directors comprised of elected officials from all
member agencies. Mendota Heights’ primary representative is Councilor Duggan and the city’s
alternate representative is Mayor Levine.
The Dakota County Board of Commissioners and the DCC Board of Directors have discussed
various changes to the Joint Powers Agreement that would transfer a greater share of the DCC
fixed costs to Dakota County. The County Board has agreed to take on a greater share of the
fixed costs of the DCC and will phase the County's contribution of fixed costs up to 50 percent
over 3 years, starting in 2022.
The funding revisions included in the Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement modify
the funding formula to have Dakota County cover a greater share of the fixed costs of the
DCC. More specifically, Dakota County will cover 16.667% in 2022; 33.333% in 2023 and
50% in 2024 and subsequent years. The Dakota County board will evaluate increasing its
share of fixed costs for 2025 and subsequent years to more than 50% and up to potentially
100%.
The DCC also desires to amend the JPA to change its name to Dakota 911.
Item 5i
Page 39
BUDGET IMPACT
This is a Police and Fire budgeted expense.
Upon approval of the JPA by all members, Dakota 911 will receive fixed cost funding from Dakota
County in the amount of $301,923 for the 2022 Dakota 911 budget and an estimated $486,533 for the
proposed 2023 Dakota 911 budget. The city’s anticipated costs for services is budgeted at $279,384
for 2022. With the adoption of the Amended and Restated JPA, the city’s anticipated 2022 costs
will be reduced by approximately $9,600.
RECOMMENDATION
The change to member cost allocations and the proposed name change requires an amendment
of the JPA. On May 5, 2022 the DCC Board of Directors unanimously approved the Amended
and Restated Joint Powers Agreement and recommended its adoption by each member entity.
Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution 2022-43, Approving an Amended and
Restated Joint Powers Agreement with the Dakota Communications Center/Dakota 911.
ACTION REQUESTED
If the City Council concurs, it should by motion, adopt Resolution 2022-43 Approving an
Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement with the Dakota Communications Center/Dakota
911

ARTICLE IX
BUDGET
9.1 Recommended Annual Budget
The Executive Director shall prepare a proposed annual operating and capital budget for the
Executive Committee no later than May 1st of each year to allow the Executive Committee members
to consult with their respective governing bodies and prepare a recommended annual operating and
capital budget for consideration by the Board of Directors. An annual operating and capital budget
shall be adopted by the Board of Directors at a regular meeting before September 1st each year. If
the Board fails to adopt a budget by September 1st, the budget from the current year shall be deemed
approved for the next year. This requirement to adopt a budget at a regular meeting of the Board by
September 1st does not apply to the calendar year in which this Agreement is first executed.
9.2 Distribution of Recommended Budget
No later than May 1st, copies of the proposed operating and capital budget as recommended by the
Executive Director shall be delivered to each Executive Committee Member.
Page 55
9.3. Review by Executive Committee
Not later than August 1st of each year, the Executive Committee shall review the annual operating and
capital budget as proposed by the Executive Director and make such modifications, as it deems
proper. Following approval by the Executive Committee, the proposed operating and capital budget
shall be submitted to the Board of Directors for final approval.
9.4 Allocation of Costs to Members
The cost of the operations and maintenance, and capital projects of the Dakota 911 will be shared by
the Members. At the time of approval of the annual operating and capital budget, the Board of
Directors shall fix the cost-sharing charges for all Members and any other participants in the Dakota
911 in amounts sufficient to provide the funds required by the approved annual operating and capital
budget for the following year. Each Member shall take all required actions to authorize the funds
necessary to meet its obligations under the approved annual operating and capital budget.
The allocation of annual operating and capital budget costs to Members shall be based on a three-
year average of each Member’s number of Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) events assigned to each
Member (referred to as “Percent of Total Activity of the Member”). An event is defined as a computer
aided dispatching system (CAD) event (transaction as logged). The calculation of the annual
operating and capital cost allocation will be based on the formulas in Attachment B, which is
incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.
Beginning with budget year 2022, Dakota County will cover the “fixed costs” of the Dakota 911 in the
following amount:
2022: 16.667%
2023: 33.333%
2024 and subsequent years: 50.000%
“Fixed costs” shall be determined by the Dakota 911 Executive Director pursuant to the following
principles:
1. Consistent with the fixed and variable cost determinations in the Dakota 911 2022 budget.
See Attachment C;
2.Fixed costs are generally expenses needed by any emergency communications center
regardless of the volume of service provided by that center to a member, except personnel
related costs, professional services, commodities, non-software related fiscal expenses are
deemed to be variable costs; and
3.For budget years 2022 to 2024, there shall be no budgeted contributions to the Dakota 911
capital project fund for its capital improvement plan (the “Capital Project Fund”). Member
contributions to the Capital Project Fund will be evaluated beginning with the 2025 budget,
together with determining the portion of the Capital Project Fund to be considered a “fixed
cost”.
Dakota County will evaluate increasing its share of fixed costs for 2025 and subsequent years to more
than 50% and up to potentially 100%. Any amendment of the fixed costs share is subject to
approval by the Members pursuant to Paragraph 16.6.
Page 56
9.5 Billing and Delinquent Payments
Invoices for the cost-sharing charges shall be provided to Members monthly. Any Member whose
charges have not been paid within thirty (30) days after billing shall be assessed interest on the
delinquent payment(s) at a rate determined by the Board of Directors, not to exceed the maximum
authorized by law at the time the payment becomes delinquent. The Directors and representatives of
a Member that is delinquent on such payment shall not be entitled to vote on any matters coming
before the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee until all delinquent payments and interest
have been paid.
9.6 Expenditure of the Annual Budget.
The Board of Directors and/or the Executive Committee may establish procedures and limitations as
may be necessary to preserve the integrity and purpose of the approved operating and capital
budget. After adoption of the annual operating and capital budget by the Board of Directors, the
Executive Director and the Executive Committee shall make all expenditures according to such
budget. Purchases and/or letting contracts shall be done according to procedural guidelines
established by resolution of the Board of Directors and Minnesota law.
The Executive Director shall have the power to transfer funds within the total annual operating
budget in order to meet unanticipated needs or changed situations. The Executive Director shall not
transfer funds within the total annual capital budget or between the operating budget and capital
budget. The Executive Director shall report any transfer of funds within the annual operating budget
to the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee in the Director's next quarterly report.
9.7 Credit or Payment to Members for Services
The Board of Directors may approve contract payments or cost-allocation credits to any Member that
provides services, resources or property to the Dakota 911.
ARTICLE X
AUDIT
The Board of Directors shall call for an annual audit of the financial affairs of the Dakota 911, to be
performed by an independent Certified Public Accountant retained by the Board in accordance with
generally accepted auditing principles. A copy of the annual audit report shall be provided to each
Member.
ARTICLE XI

Executive Committee deems necessary. Such insurance shall name each Member as an additional
insured, and may name other entities that purchase communications services from the Dakota 911 as
additional insureds if deemed appropriate. By purchasing insurance the Members do not intend to
waive, and shall not be interpreted to constitute a waiver by any Member of limitations on liability or
immunities provided by any applicable Minnesota law, including Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 466.

Member shall at its sole expense, indemnify and save free and harmless from any cost, expense,
attorney fees, judgments or liability of any nature the Dakota 911 and/or its officers, Directors

the Dakota 911 acted in a negligent or intentionally wrongful manner in connection with dispatching
the personnel of the Member.

SUBJECT: Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) Between LMRWMO and the City of Mendota
Heights for the Interstate Valley Creek Study
INTRODUCTION
The Council is asked to approve a JPA with Lower Mississippi River Watershed Management
Organization (LMRWMO) for Interstate Valley Creek Study.
BACKGROUND
Interstate Valley Creek is listed as an impaired water of the State of Minnesota. The listed
impairment is for E. coli bacteria. The City of Mendota Heights and the LMRWMO have
performed previous studies of the creek, the most recent report was done in 2003.
DISCUSSION
The LMRWMO Board of Managers is scheduled to approve a contract with WSB Engineering at
their June 11 meeting to begin the study of Interstate Valley Creek. The proposed scope of work
includes creation of a feasibility study to determine implementation activities to improve the
water quality and reduce erosion along the creek. This may include identifying areas of
streambank erosion and options for protection, identification of potential stormwater BMPs,
particularly looking towards volume reduction. This study also includes adjacent tributaries that
feed into Interstate Valley Creek such as the Wentworth reach and Marie Creek. Specific
activities include watershed modeling, desktop mapping, field reconnaissance, cost benefit
analysis, pollutant calculations, and a final report. The project scope is further discussed in the
attached WSB Engineering proposal.
BUDGET IMPACT
The WSB Engineering study is recommended for approval from the LMRWMO subcommittee
for a not to exceed fee of $73,708. The LMRWMO allocated grant funds from the State of
Minnesota of up to $50,000 towards this study, pending approval from the Minnesota Board of
Soil and Water Resources (BWSR).
The City of Mendota Heights is asked to provide the required local match of $25,000 towards the
study as outlined in the original application. This match is proposed to be funded from the Storm
Water Utility Fund which has adequate funds for the project.

SUBJECT: Resolution 2022-47 Public Hearing on Easement Vacation for Mendota Plaza
Expansion Second Addition
INTRODUCTION
The Council is asked to hold proceedings for Resolution 2022-47, a public hearing on an
easement vacation commenced by petition for Mendota Plaza Expansion Second Addition.
BACKGROUND
The city of Mendota Heights received a petition for vacating drainage and utility easements on
Lot 1, Block 1, Mendota Plaza Expansion Second Addition. A copy of the plat is attached which
shows the easement areas that were dedicated.
DISCUSSION
The City of Mendota Heights recently approved Phase II of the Reserve in the Mendota Plaza
PUD. This new development requires modifications to the drainage and utility easements.
The Lot 1, Block 1 parcel proposed for development has reconfigured utility layouts which do
not align with the previously dedicated utility easements. A petition was received to vacate the
existing drainage and utility easements for an underground storm water treatment device, a
sanitary sewer service line, and a water service line. New easements will be granted to the city
for the underground storm water treatment device and for a sanitary sewer lift station. The lift
station and storm water treatment device are privately owned and maintained by the property
owner but the city will retain an easement as a legal means to access these utilities in case of
emergency. The service line easements for the sanitary sewer and water are no longer required
as they are only serving a single occupant and are not shared based on the former PUD.
Notices were sent to all properties within the Mendota Plaza plat and all properties within 350
feet of the property. At the time of writing this memo, no responses were received.
BUDGET IMPACT
The Mendota Heights fee schedule includes a required $250 application fee to cover mailing and
recording fees and staff time which was received from the petitioner.
RECOMMENDATION
Item 8a
Page 145
Staff recommends that Council open the public hearing and hear any comments. Staff also
recommends that the City Council pass a motion adopting Resolution No. 2022-47,
“RESOLUTION APPROVING AN EASEMENT VACATION COMMENCED BY
PETITION”.
ACTION REQUIRED
City council shall open the public hearing and hear any comments. If the Council concurs, it
should, by motion adopt Resolution No. 2022-47, “RESOLUTION APPROVING AN
EASEMENT VACATION COMMENCED BY PETITION”.
This action requires a simple majority vote.

Copies of the 05/24/2022 planning report, Xcel’s site improvements and safety plans, along with the
planning commission meeting minutes, are appended to this memo.
AUTHORITY
The City is using its quasi-judicial authority when considering action on certain land use or zoning
decisions, such as this MRCCA permit, and has broad discretion. A determination regarding whether or
not the request meets the applicable code standards is required. The resolution confirms this determination.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission recommended unanimously (5-0 vote) to approve the MRCCA Permit to Xcel
Energy and for 800 Sibley Memorial Highway, with findings-of-fact to support said approval and certain
conditions, as memorialized in the attached [draft] resolution.
ACTION REQUIRED
City Council may affirm the recommendation from the Planning Commission by adopting RESOLUTION
NO. 2022-44, APPROVING A MISSISSIPPI RIVER CORRIDOR CRITICAL AREA (MRCCA)

INTRODUCTION
Xcel Energy (Northern States Power Company) is seeking approval of a Miss. River Corridor Critical Area
(MRCCA) Permit, in order to provide a number of safety and functional improvements to the Sibley
Propane Plant facility, located at 800 Sibley Memorial Highway.
This item is being presented under a duly noticed public hearing process. A notice of hearing was published
in the Pioneer Press; and notice letters were mailed to all owners within 350-feet of the subject property,
including the cities of St. Paul and Lilydale. The city has not received any objection or comments related

BACKGROUND
The subject property is generally known or identified as the
Sibley Propane Gas Plant facility, which is located south
and east of State Trunk Highway 13, and abuts Valley Park
to the south, commercial/office developments to the north,
and Park Place and Summit residential neighborhoods to
the east (refer to GIS image – right). The plant property
contains two parcels comprising of approximately 25 total
acres, which are all owned and operated by Xcel Energy
(formerly Northern States Power Company). According to
Xcel representatives, the plant use has existed in its current
location since the mid-1950’s.
The site is fairly open with security style fencing around its
perimeter, and contains a number of support structures and
buildings that house office/work spaces, maintenance
areas, valve/mixing rooms, and includes 37 horizontal
laying propane tanks on the back side of the plant site
(referred to as the “Tank Farm”)
Page 159
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 2
The plant is used primarily to feed propane into the local natural gas line systems during periodic “spikes”
or peak demand events, typically experienced in winter heating season months and only as needed.
On August 25, 2021,Xcel submitted an Administrative Critical Area Permit application to the City Council,
in order to complete some immediate and mandatory infrastructure improvements to this plant. These
upgrades included replacing some outdated and worn out valves, pipes and equipment with new modern
materials, equipment, pipes, valves and miscellaneous safety measures. Due to the importance of providing
continued natural gas service to the community and region, and ensuring that gas is available to local
customers when the cold/winter season comes, these equipment upgrades and the work proposed by Xcel
were deemed essential to the general public, and the council elected to expedite this work under an
Administrative Critical Area Permit approval.
Xcel is now completing other elements and improvements needed for this tank facility, and are requesting
official consideration of this work under a new MRCCA Permit, and which work includes the following:
1. replace the existing propane loading facilities for increased operational efficiency and safety;
2. improve the existing stormwater routing, storage, and discharge systems on site;
3. install a new fire suppression system; and
4. repair and armor the eroding stormwater channel located to the west of the tank farm.
According to the Xcel’s narrative, the proposed work will bring the site into compliance with National Fire
Prevention Association (NFPA) codes and design standards.
ANALYSIS – MRCCA PERMIT
A majority of the plant site is situated in the MRCCA Overlay boundary, and is located within the SR-
Separated by River District.
Along the westerly boundary of the site is where the mapped bluffs are located, identified as the cross-
hatched areas – and the related 20-foot buffer or bluff impact zone (BIZ), as noted by orange-hatched areas
(see MRCCA map image- above).
Properties located in the SR District are characterized or governed by the following principles:
Description. The SR district is characterized by its physical and visual distance from the Mississippi
River. The district includes land separated from the river by distance, topography, development,
or a transportation corridor. The land in this district is not readily visible from the Mississippi River.
Page 160
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 3
Management Purpose. The SR district provides flexibility in managing development without
negatively affecting the key resources and features of the river corridor. Minimizing negative
impacts to primary conservation areas and minimizing erosion and the flow of untreated storm
water into the river are priorities in the district. In addition, providing public access to and public
views of the river, and restoring natural vegetation in riparian areas and tree canopy are also
priorities in the district.
Per Section 12-3-8. E., Public utilities must comply with the following standards:
1. High-voltage transmission lines, wind energy conversion systems greater than five (5) megawatts,
and pipelines are regulated according to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 216E, 216F, and 216G
respectively; and
2. If overhead placement is necessary, utility facility crossings must minimize the visibility of the
facility from the river and follow other existing right of ways as much as practicable.
3. The appearance of structures must be as compatible as practicable with the surrounding area in a
natural state with regard to height and width, materials used, and color.
4. Wireless communication facilities must comply with Section 12-3-5.B.6.
There are no new high-voltage line, wind energy systems, pipelines or wireless communication systems
proposed under this project.
Pursuant to new City Code Section 12-3-12, no building permit, zoning approval, or subdivision approval
shall be issued for any action or development located in an area covered by this chapter until a site plan has
been prepared and approved in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. The new ordinance also
provides for new rules and standards for new developments, which may include Land Alteration activities
and Vegetation Management (removals and replanting).
There are no major building improvements proposed under this project, except for a small pump house for
the new fire suppression system. Most of the new or major structural improvement include a new truck
unloading facility and system located just north of the tank farm and support buildings, which will be rebuilt
with above grade piping to easily monitor the condition of the propane transfer system.
A significant portion of the project is dedicated to addressing drainage issues on the site. Work will consist
of re-grading parts of the site, and installing a detention pond and spill containment basin (with an
impervious liner), that will treat immediate stormwater runoff in the tank farm areas, and act as an
emergency containment basin in the event of any tank leak (see plan image below – lower right corner).
Page 161
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 4
The plan includes connected network of concrete stormwater trenches to be installed between the tanks,
which will be equipped with traffic rated grates on top of the trenches to accommodate workers and vehicle
traffic. These trenches are tied together and drain water towards the storm/emergency basin in the corner.
As evident in aerial images and site pics, this area outside the tank farm is experiencing considerable erosion
and wash-out from surface drainage leaving the tank farm site at this location. Xcel intends to correct this
issue by reinforcing and armoring this open channel with new rip-rap rock material, and restore any
disturbed areas in and around this channel area as needed (see images – below.
Xcel’s plans also includes a narrow, open diversion ditch to be installed along the east edge of the tank
farm, which will gradually drain any water runoff into the channeled opening on the east end of the new
pond. Should the pondreach a certain level, there is a 30-inch outlet pipe that will carry water away through
the tank farm and discharge out to the improved and armored rip-rap drainage channel located outside the
west side of the tank farm (see pipe and rip-rap channel image – below):
Xcel is planning to install a considerable fire
suppression system for the tank farm, which
will consist of a new water supply system fed
by a new 12-inch main extension coming from
the water main line underneath Farmdale Road
to the east. This line will cross over the vacant
wooded parcel located between Farmdale Road
and the plant site, also owned by Xcel. Plans
call for the line to be placed within the open
corridor space that exists between the roadway
and facility (refer to street image – right).
LOOKING WESTERLY FROM FARMDALE RD. - TOWARDS GAS PLANT

Page 162
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 5
Xcel intends to directional bore this 12” pipe line through this corridor; however, if engineering constraints
make this impossible or too difficult, Xcel will then need to open-trench the line in, and replant and restore
the area as needed. This existing open corridor should help save or prevent the loss of additional trees in
this wooded parcel as part of this water main extension and construction work.
Once the 12-inch main is extended into the plant site, it will then connect over to a small fire-pump house
structure located north of the tank farm. From there, Xcel plans to extend and loop a new 16” water line
around the perimeter of the tank farm and support structures (north of the tanks), then the system will be
looped northward or back out to the water system in Sibley Highway to the north.
The underground piping will provide for fire hydrants or valves to be strategically spaced around the tank
farm; and will connect to a new above-ground sprinkler system, which will remain dry. If there is an
accidental spill event, the underground water system will fill the above ground piping, which will then flood
the tank farm. The entire system above and below ground will be submitted to the State Fire Marshall for
a Fire Suppression Permit, and the Mendota Heights Fire Department will be provided copies of these plans
as well. All of this water main system work must be approved or permitted by St. Paul Regional Water
Resources.
Land Alteration Standards and Stormwater Management
MRCCA Ordinance Section 12-3-10 provides for specific allowances and standards related to Land
Alteration and Stormwater Management. The purpose of this section is to establish standards that protect
water quality from pollutant loadings of sediment, nutrients, bacteria, and other contaminants, and maintain
the stability of bluffs, shorelines, and other areas prone to erosion.
Land Alteration:
Within the bluff impact zone (BIZ), land alteration is prohibited, except for the following, which are allowed only
by permit.
a) Erosion control consistent with a plan approved by the City and consistent with Section 12-3-10.F.
b) The minimum necessary for development that is allowed as an exception under Section 12-3-15; and
c) Repair and maintenance of existing buildings and facilities.
Construction or replacement of rock riprap and other erosion control structures within the bluff impact zone is
allowed with a permit consistent with the provisions of Section 12-3-10.F., provided that:
a. If the project includes work at or below the OHWL, the commissioner must approve or permit the project.
b. The structures are used only to correct an established erosion problem as determined by the City.
Page 163
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 6
c. The size and extent of the structures are the minimum necessary to correct the erosion problem and are
not larger than the following, unless a professional engineer determines that a larger structure is needed
to correct the erosion problem:
1) Retaining walls must not exceed five feet (5’) in height and must be placed a minimum horizontal
distance of ten feet (10’) apart; and
2) Riprap must not exceed the height of the regulatory flood protection elevation.
The City has been aware of the worsening erosion pattern and gully developing on the west side of the tank
farm, and asked Xcel (in 2021) to plan for or provide some form of mitigation and correction in this area.
The new heavy, angular rock rip-rap to be placed along this drainage channel, will provide adequate and
suitable erosion protection and management for this slope.
Additional grading around the tank farm will be minimal, and provide for adequate containment of any
stormwater runoff or help contain any spills.
Stormwater Management:
In the bluff impact zone, stormwater management facilities are prohibited, except by permit if:
a. There are no alternatives for storm water treatment outside the bluff impact zone on the subject site;
b. The site generating runoff is designed so that the amount of runoff reaching the bluff impact zone is
reduced to the greatest extent practicable;
c. The construction and operation of the facility does not affect slope stability on the subject property
or adjacent properties; and
d. Mitigation based on the best available engineering and geological practices is required and applied to
eliminate or minimize the risk of slope failure.
In all other areas, storm water runoff must be directed away from the bluff impact zones or unstable areas.
As noted previously, Xcel intends to construct a new stormwater detention basin to provide treatment of
runoff coming off the tank farm area. This basin will be placed in the southeast corner of the tank farm, an
area relatively flat and level. No part of this basin will be adjacent to or impacts any BIZ in and around this
utility parcel. The basin is meant to pre-treat stormwater runoff, but also help reduce runoff from reaching
the bluff and BIZ on the west; which will help with slope stability that is called for or needed in this westerly
sloped areas.
Tree Removal & Replacement
Xcel has provided a very detailed tree inventory and identification plan, which includes a tree/vegetation
replacement plan as well. As was noted previously, the open corridor area off Farmdale Road that cuts
across the Xcel owned parcel and over to the tank farm, is intended to be an area of minimal disturbance
by means of directional boring the new water pipe. However, if directional boring is not possible, and full
trench construction needed, Xcel has identified a number of trees that may need to be removed (approx. 28)
and the replacement plan calling for 10 Eastern Redbuds; 5 Allegheny Serviceberry; and 5 American
Hornbeam trees in this area (see partial tree plan image – below left).
Page 164
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 7
The other area of removal is along the west side of the service/entrance drive, where the new looped water
line is being planned for connection back out on to Sibley Highway (see partial plan image –above –right).
A number of these plantings (approx. 50 +/-) are scheduled for removal, and most of these appear to be
green ash, buckthorn, box elders and small number of white oaks. The replacements for this area include
13 Eastern Redbuds; 10 Downy Hawthorne; 5 swamp oaks; 5 American Hornbeam; 5 Allegheny
Serviceberry; and 5 American Yellowwood.
The plan also calls for all disturbed areas to be restored with MnDOT Low Maintenance Turf Mix #25-131.
Conditions of Land Alteration Permit Approval
No permit for land alteration shall be approved unless:
1. Temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control measures to retain sediment onsite are
consistent with the best management practices in the Minnesota Stormwater Manual, as it may be
amended or revised from time to time;
2. Natural site topography, and soil and vegetation conditions are used to control runoff and reduce
erosion and sedimentation;
3. Construction activity is phased when possible;
4. All erosion and sediment controls are installed before starting any land disturbance activity;
5. Erosion and sediment controls are maintained to ensure effective operation;
6. The proposed work is consistent with the vegetation standards in Section 12-3-9; and
7. Best management practices are used for protecting and enhancing ecological and water resources
as identified in Best Practices for Meeting DNR General Public Waters Work Permit GP 2004-0001,
as it may be amended or revised from time to time.
As part of any Land Disturbance Permit issued by city for any new construction project, the Applicants will
be required to submit for review a Storm Water Pollution Prevention (SWPP) plan, which will ensure all
erosion protection measures are installed and in place prior to any construction work begins and maintained
throughout the duration of the project. The Applicants will likely need a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit from Minn. Pollution Control Agency as well.
INTERAGENCY REVIEW
The city is required to give Minnesota Dept. of Natural Resources and National Park Service at least 20-
day notice of any new MRCCA Permit application request. These notices were emailed (04/29/2022)
directly to the appropriate staff; and a response from DNR was received indicating no comment or issues
with the proposed improvement work and project by Xcel; and received no response or comment from NPS.
The city also mailed notices related to this MRCCA Permit request and project to the cities of Lilydale and
Saint Paul for review/comments, and received no responses or comments from either community.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Approve the MRCCA Permit request to Xcel Energy and for 800 Sibley Memorial Highway, which
would allow the replacement of an existing propane loading system; new stormwater routing, storage,
and discharge systems on site (including new stormwater detention/emergency spill containment
basin); install a new fire suppression system; and repair and armor the stormwater channel located along
the west side of the tank farm; all based on the findings-of-fact that the proposed project is compliant
with the policies and standards of the MRCCA Ordinance and City Code, and subject to certain
conditions; or
2. Deny the MRCCA Permit request to Xcel Energy and for 800 Sibley Memorial Highway, based on the
recommendation the application and project does not meet certain policies and standards of the
Page 165
Planning Case #2022-09 (Xcel – MRCCA Permit) Page 8
MRCCA Ordinance and City Code, based on revised findings-of-facts determined by the Planning
Commission; or
3. Table the request; direct staff to work with the Applicants and allow more time to revise or refine the
plans submitted for review, and/or provide additional information for the Planning Commission to
further consider, and extend the application review period an additional 60 days, in compliance with
MN STAT. 15.99.

x Improve the existing stormwater routing, storage, and discharge systems on site while
implementing precautions to decrease the risks associated with any liquid propane storage
tank failure.
x Replace the existing propane loading facilities for increased operational efficiency and safety.
x Install a new fire suppression system.
x Repair and armor the eroding channel located to the west of the tank farm.
The proposed work will bring the site into compliance with National Fire Prevention Association
(NFPA) codes and design standards. The majority of the work will take place within the fenced
compound of the Sibley Plant which has been maintained as an asphalt and gravel surface. Work will
consist of regrading the site and installing a detention pond that will treat stormwater and act as a
containment basin if there is a tank leak. A new fire suppression system with new piping will be
installed along with new water main connections to Sibley Memorial Highway and Farmdale Road.
The truck unlRading facility will be rebuilt with above grade piping to easily monitor the condition
of the propane transfer system.
The property is in the southeast quadrant of and adjacent to I-35E and US Hwy 13. The site is
irregularly shaped and additionally abuts Lilydale Road and Farmdale Road. The property is in the
Critical Area Overlay Zone and includes steep slopes to the south and west and forested land
surrounding the facility. NSP purchased additional buffer land to the east to help screen the facility
from adjacent development to the east. City parkland to the south and east provide additional
screening and buffering. The site cannot be seen from the river, nor can the river be seen from the
site.

Landscaping: There are no plans to change screening at the facility. Our intent is to keep the facility
our of site and out of mind from the public.
Construction Timing: Construction Timing: Our intent is to start construction immediately after
receiving approval of our application and permits. Our goal is to have the plant operational prior to
the onset of the 2022 -2023 winter heating season.

x New Construction/ Structure Permit: All work will be within the fenced compound which
consists of gravel and asphalt surfaces. The new structures will consist of piping and
associated racks and foundations. The pipe at the loading facility will be less than 10’ in
height except for one overhead pipe bridge whose length will be approximately 40’ long, 15’
high and located in the central part of the facility. Piping in other locations may be elevated
to allow for emergency vehicle access through the facility. Xcel Energy will also be installing
a new water line that will be used for fire suppression system. The line is a looped system
with connections at Sibley Memorial Highway and Farmdale Road. The water line will be
privately owned and operated.
x Land Alteration Permit: With the exception of repairing the eroded channel located west of
the tank farm, all grading activities will be within the fenced compound. Grading activities
will direct runoff to a new storm water detention facility where it will release water from the
site at a reduced rate. Considerations in the detention facility design included eliminating the
disturbance of steep slopes and vegetation. The grading activities will also bring the Sibley
Plant into compliance with the most current NFPA standards by directing any spills or leaks
away from the propane tanks into the detention facility, which will have gates installed to
prevent the spill from leaving the fenced compound.
Thank you for your consideration of our request to bring the Sibley Plant into compliance with the
latest NFPA safety standards. The proposed improvements will minimally impact the natural
environment and enhance the reliability and safety of the natural gas system in Mendota Heights and
surrounding communities.

Hearings
A)PLANNING CASE 2022-09
XCEL ENERGY, 800 SIBLEY MEMORIAL HIGHWAY – MRCCA PERMIT
Community Development Director Tim Benetti explained that Xcel Energy (Northern States
Power Company) was seeking approval of a Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area (MRCCA)
Permit in order to provide a number of safety and functional improvements to the Sibley Propane
Plant Facility, located at 800 Sibley Memorial Highway.
Hearing notices were published and mailed to all properties within 350-ft. of the site; two calls
from neighboring properties were received today and no comments or objections to this request
were received.
Community Development Director Benetti provided a planning staff report and a presentation on
this planning item to the Commission (which is available for viewing through the City’s website).
Page 224
Staff recommended approval of this application based on the findings and with conditions.
Commissioner Toth commented that in the event a directional bore cannot take place there is a
plan B identified. He asked what would occur that would eliminate the opportunity to do
directional boring.
Community Development Director Benetti commented that they could run into rock or other
features that could preclude that. He noted that the goal is to do directional boring as it would be
the least impactful. He noted that if an open trench (plan B) is needed, there is a tree replacement
plan identified.
Commissioner Johnson asked what is happening after the riprap and whether the velocity would
be slowed down enough.
Community Development Director Benetti provided details on the path drainage would follow,
eventually to interstate valley creek.
Commissioner Johnson asked if staff has looked at the impact to the creek and the velocity that
would be going to the creek. She asked if there would be sufficient plant materials and roots that
could clean the water sufficiently before reaching the creek.
Public Works Director Ryan Ruzek replied that the construction of the pond would drastically
reduce the amount of water going to the creek and therefore staff is comfortable that this will be a
major improvement from what exists today. He noted that the majority of the water would be
collected in the pond and a storm event that would typically discharge to the creek in ten minutes
under the current conditions would take 40 hours after the improvements are completed.
Commissioner Johnson asked if there is enough vegetation after the armoring.
Public Works Director Ruzek replied that he has not been to the bottom of the hill for a few years.
Commissioner Johnson stated that she would be concerned if there is enough vegetation.
Public Works Director Ruzek commented that Xcel has always been a good partner to the City
and therefore if additional plantings were needed, he was confident that Xcel would partner with
the City to get that done.
Chair Field commented that the pond and riprap would dissipate the flow and it would be
drastically better than the existing conditions.
Public Works Director Ruzek confirmed that noting that currently there is no stormwater
management on the site.
Commissioner Lorberbaum noted a suggested recommendation of full erosion and sedimentation
measures and asked for details on what that would entail.
Page 225
Community Development Director Benetti noted that while the language is vague, more detail is
found under the City’s SWPPP which identifies the elements that can be used.
Chair Field opened the public hearing.
Brian Sullivan, Xcel Energy, stated that they are attempting to make the site compliant with today’s
standards and are willing to work with City staff to incorporate any additional suggestions.
Commissioner Johnson thanked the applicant for the detailed plans. She asked the plan for
ensuring that the trees that will be planted will be successful.
Mr. Sullivan replied that they have a vegetation management group that take care of watering of
new trees and vegetation.
Commissioner Johnson suggested the use of watering bags in the case the watering crew does not
come through enough.
Mr. Sullivan stated that he would be open to that suggestion. He stated that all the trees would
also be guaranteed for one year.
Commissioner Johnson asked if the applicant is familiar with the “come clean, leave clean” policy
to prevent the spread of invasive species.
Mr. Sullivan replied that the vegetation management crew is familiar with that policy.
Commissioner Johnson provided information invasive jumping worm, noting that the only “cure”
is prevention. She also provided information on the “come clean, leave clean” policy.
Chair Field stated that the Commission also had this conversation with Xcel on a previous
application therefore he believes that the proper people are aware of it.
Tom Muck, Farmdale Road, commented that this is a tank farm and even though it is well kept, it
provides the character of an industrial area rather than a residential area. He understood the plan
to cut the new water line through a dirt path that is already there but could not tell how many feet
of tree removal would be required.
It was clarified that the area marked for removal would be 40 feet.
Mr. Muck commented that the plan then envisions cutting a 40-foot swath through the trees that
provide screening to the residential properties. He did not see a necessity to cut any trees. He
believed there was enough room on the trail to come through that. He recognized that there is a
replanting plan but noted that those trees will be small and take time to grow. He referenced an
item within the public hearing notice that states restore and repair a drainage channel outside the
limits of the tank farm and asked for additional details.
Page 226
Community Development Director Benetti identified the area outside of the tank farm and
provided details on the work that would occur in that area to repair runoff drainage.
Mr. Muck asked that the Commission require no tree removal. He stated that if it is necessary, he
would like to hear a good explanation of why that is needed.
Ed Hanton, 1288 Aspen Way, referenced the new structure that would be used to upload or
download and asked if that would mean there would be more trucks coming in and out of the site.
It was confirmed that there would not be additional trucks coming and going from the site after
construction is completed.
Joanie Tibbets, identified her home on the map, and stated that she is concerned that the screening
could be impacted if trees are removed. She noted that even during the winter months the trees
provide screening but stated that some of those trees have been removed in a previous project. She
stated that stadium lighting was then added as well. She was concerned that if more trees were
removed, it would cause more impact to her property. She stated that she does not want to feel
like she lives next to an industrial park.
Jim Vaughn, 1300 Aspen Way, asked for clarity on which trees are proposed for removal.
Community Development Director Benetti replied that the trees proposed for removal are along
the west side of the driveway. He stated that there would be new plantings near the roadway on
both the west and east sides.
Mr. Vaughn asked where the pond would be located.
Community Development Director Benetti replied that the pond would be located on the southeast
corner of the tank farm.
Mr. Sullivan recognized the concern for the trees mentioned by the residents. He noted that their
intention is to directionally bore the water line through. He commented that sometimes that does
not work and therefore the alternate plan was included to complete that via trench. He stated that
in the eight years he has been with Xcel there has only been one time directional boring did not
work. He stated that if directional boring does not work, they would follow the trail to trench. He
explained why 40 feet would be needed for trenching. He hoped that they would not need to
remove trees and could use directional boring. He stated that they could work with the residents
on the placement of replacement trees as well.
Commissioner Johnson asked the type of lighting that is on the site.
Mr. Sullivan commented that the lighting should be directionally down but noted that he is unsure.
He stated that he can follow up to ensure lighting is not going into neighboring windows.
Commissioner Johnson asked if some evergreens could be planted in the corridor area to help
provide screening.
Page 227
Mr. Sullivan replied that they can adjust the planting plan. He noted that many of the plantings
are planned along the entrance drive, but some could be moved to the eastern border if desired.
Commissioner Johnson commented that she would not want to take away from what is being down
near the entrance but asked if additional trees could be added.
Mr. Sullivan confirmed that additional evergreens could be added.
Seeing no one further coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close
the public hearing.
COMMISSIONER LORBERBAUM MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER KATZ, TO
CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

Dear Mayor and City Council:
On May 26, 2022 at 11:30 AM, four bids for the Centre Pointe Street Improvements project were
received. The lowest bid was submitted by Bituminous Roadways. A complete Tabulation of Bids is
enclosed for your information.
Contractor Total Base Bid
Bituminous Roadways Inc. $3,515,505.16
S.M Hentges & Sons, Inc. $3,687,614.05
McNamara Contracting $3,691,750.00
OMG Midwest Inc.$3,930,543.87
Engineer’s Estimate $3,224,694.15
Bid Analysis
The low bid from Bituminous Roadways is approximately 9% ($291,000) over the most current
engineer’s estimate. The low bid shows pricing increases for bituminous and storm sewer materials.
The increases are due to material shortages and rising oil prices. Other recent bid openings for similar
street projects have shown pricing of up to 12% over engineer’s estimates with similar price increases
for storm sewer materials and bituminous products.
Recommendation
The lowest responsible bidder, Bituminous Roadways (known as BR), operates locally out of Mendota
Heights, Minnesota. They have been in business since 1946. TKDA has worked with BR on numerous
projects in the Twin Cities over the last few years. They have completed outstanding work as the prime
contractor and as a paving subcontractor on several of our projects. BR has performed similar work for
the City of Mendota Heights as recently as 2019 for the Wesley Lane Street Improvement Project and
as a paving subcontractor for the 2021 Ivy Falls Street Improvement Project. They are a local company
and take pride in their work.

Bid Recommendation
June 2, 2022
Page 2
In our opinion, it is not likely that pricing will decrease in the foreseeable future. While the expected cost
of construction exceeds the estimate, we feel that the improvement will add value, safety and longevity
to the project areas when completed.
Our recommendation is as follows:
1. Receive all bids submitted.
2. Award the contract for the Centre Pointe Street Improvements Project to the lowest
responsible bidder, Bituminous Roadways Inc., for the Total Bid of $3,515,505.16.
Please call or email me with any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Larry Poppler, PE

Item 9d

The Outdoor Recreation Grant received, is proposing to still fund this project without
construction of the warming house if the hockey rink is paved and trail connections added to the
basketball court, hockey rink, and pavilion structures. An amendment was submitted from the
Minnesota DNR to the National Park Service for this request. At the time of writing this memo,
a response to the amendment has not yet been received.
BUDGET IMPACT
The original grant submittal identified $150,000 for the playground replacement, $90,000 for the
parking lot/trails, and $150,000 for the warming house for a total of $390,000. $180,000 was the
requested grant amount.
The city completed the playground replacement for a cost of $147,000. Replacing the parking
lot and trails is currently estimated at $150,000 in 2018 dollars. The estimate to pave the hockey
rink is $75,000. The total estimated amount to complete the paving at Wentworth is $225,000.
The city has also expended funds from the special park fund for the warming house project
which is currently estimated at $24,600 for architectural fees, soil borings, and a topographic
survey. This work will still be useful as the city determines the future of a building at this park.
If the city receives the full grant amount of $180,000, this amount could be applied to the
parking lot and trail work. The hockey rink paving is eligible for special park fund financing.
